  1. Samiara, Mahira and Kiara rented a set of DVDs at a rent of ₹ 578. If they used it for 8 hours, 12 hours and 14 hours respectively, what is Kiara’s share of rent to be paid?
    1. ₹ 238
    2. ₹ 204
    3. ₹ l92
    4. ₹ 215
Correct Option: A

As per given question, we know that,
Ratio of rent’s sharing = 8 : 12 : 14 = 4 : 6 : 7
Total rent = ₹ 578
Let us assume that ration variable is P.
According to question,
4P + 6P + 7P = 578
⇒ 17 P = 578

⇒ P =
578
17

Now We can calculate,
Share of Kiara = 7P
............ Put the value of P, We will get,
Share of Kiara =
7
× 578 = ₹ 238.
17
